I'd wager this is more common now than it was when I was a kid. Towards my teenaged years we got a sound card and could hear something more sophisticated than the simple speakers that could mostly just beep. Before that it was 8-bit, at best, and it mostly didn't sound so great. I remember some of the games though, from the midish '90s could allow you to put a CD into the drive and listen to that as you played.

That's been my opinion for a while. There's so much music, even if the music were as good as in the past, you'd still have issues with any band getting enough mindshare to become s shared experience. There probably are better artists now than in the past, but hardly any of them get enough exposure to really resonate the way that groups like the Beatles, Eagles, Nirvana and the like did. People of those generations may not all have liked those groups, but chances are that the songs still bring up personal memories for them. I'd be shocked if there are any groups that manage a similar level of impact now. And that's whether or not they've got any artistic merit.
